Dr. Tomas A. Salerno Elected Chair of the Faculty Senate

Message from Dean Goldschmidt:

Dear Colleagues,

It is with great pride that I announce to you that our colleague Tomas A. Salerno, M.D., professor and Vice Chair of the Department of Surgery, has been elected Chair of the Faculty Senate. His one-year term will begin June 1.

The Faculty Senate plays an important role in dealing with academic policies, new program and degree approvals, compensation and annual budgets, reviews of chairs and deans, and countless other matters of collegial concern and interest.

Tom has served ably in the Faculty Senate since 2008, most recently as First Vice Chair. His election as Chair honors the whole Miller School family, and I look forward to his continued contributions.

Please join me in congratulating Tom on this well-deserved honor.

Pascal
